What little girl or boy can't relate to dressing up in their parent's clothes?
Mama's Sari hones in on this universal experience as a mom and her seven year-old daughter select a sari for her to wear. Of course, the sari is gorgeous and the young girl begs her mother to wear it immediately. Of course, the mom relents and together they explore the traditions associated with saris.
There is a Hindi glossary that can help with the terms.
Mama's Sari is another great example of how books can provide positive role models for kids of color and provide an introduction to a piece of Indian culture for everyone.
Do you have any favorite books, movies etc. that you want to recommend? Please don't hesitate to let me know.
With Respect:
